Answer:

PE is increasing

KE is constant

Step-by-step explanation:

The potential energy increase when the height increase and the kinetic energy increase when the speed increse. In this case, the car is moving upward, so the potential energy PE is increasing and the car is moving at a constant speed, so the kinetic energy KE is constant.
